摘要
En 中文
Immunofluorescence patterns of anti-nuclear antibodies (ANAs) on human epithelial cell (HEp-2) substrates are important biomarkers for the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases. There are growing clinical requirements for an automatic readout and classification of ANA immunofluorescence patterns for HEp-2 images following the taxonomy recommended by the International Consensus on Antinuclear Antibody Patterns (ICAP). In this study, a comprehensive collection of HEp-2 specimen images covering a broad range of ANA patterns was established and manually annotated by experienced laboratory experts. By utilizing a supervised learning methodology, an automatic immunofluorescence pattern classification framework for HEp-2 specimen images was developed. The framework consists of a module for HEp-2 cell detection and cell-level feature extraction, followed by an image-level classifier that is capable of recognizing all 14 classes of ANA immunofluorescence patterns as recommended by ICAP. Performance analysis indicated an accuracy of 92.05% on the validation dataset and 87% on an independent test dataset, which has surpassed the performance of human examiners on the same test dataset. The proposed framework is expected to contribute to the automatic ANA pattern recognition in clinical laboratories to facilitate efficient and precise diagnosis of autoimmune diseases.
